For those of you who don't have programs to do automatic anagramming
(which is, of course, dreadful cheating to the purist but I'm not a
purist) here are a few more interesting anagrams on NIGEL SHORT:

gin hostler isle throng shingle rot oh sterling
gin holster torn sleigh rot his glen string hole
other sling torn his leg shirt on leg log his tern
log his rent sloth reign honest girl shot linger
hotel rings hotel grins holt resign hot lingers
slot her gin lost her gin sing her lot to her sling
nor sleight light snore the girl son

There are probably others but these were the most interesting ones
that were made up of up to three words out of my /usr/dict/words.

With apologies to anyone who might find some of these offensive, here are
some more anagrams of famous chess players:

Raymond Keene = Money Kneader
William Hartston = It thrills a woman
Graham K Burgess = Sark bumshagger
Michael Stean = I am chaste, Len
Svetozar Gligoric = Vera Zogg's clitoris
Pal Benko = Pale knob
Tigran Petrosian = Ignorant arsepit.

There were a few more of Tigran Petrosian. Anyone care to put him through
an anagram program?

Enjoy!

Hi Belly D.! ( <==> Bill Hyde)

Well, Jan Timman doesn't have enough letters for many interesting anagrams
but one that *is* kind of funny is

Tin Man Jam (either a really gross breakfast spread or a funny
blues song?)

I goofed around with "Nigel Short and Jan Timman" for a while and got
a few semi-workable anagrams:

String and the Nominal Jam (a cyberpunk rap group?)
a mannerism and night jolt --- OK, that one's too weird ---

I tried pulling other small common words out and didn't get any other
combinations, alas.

Maybe Brig. Smug Rank (<<=>Mark Ginsburg) will enjoy this, or maybe
his own wit will loosen (<==>Elliot Winslow) up a little bit and
he'll tell a few jokes of his own.

I would have worked in an anagram on Joel Benjamin but those two j's
pretty much screw things up. Sorry dude.

So Mike, how about Jan Timman? Or the combination of both?
